accel slims are crazy thin so probably. Also that's their most popular shoe, probably because it's so thin  that it skates like a vulc. I don't get how this is a scam? Many skate shoe soles look like this because people like shoes with a lot of boardfeel. Look at the other cuts on weartested, like a 1/3 of them look like this. The difference with the Sophisto is the thin ass insole.

2 reviews back is the DC Metric S which has no forefoot padding besides the insole:

It's the same sole es has used since they came back nearly 10 years ago. Whenever there's someone who's like vulc shoes are shitty I need cupsoles they should be shown this picture so they know the names cup and vulc don't really mean anything.

Pish poor comparison considering the fact about the Accel Slim sole is pretty known to be pish in terms of support as far as cups goes. Board feel being good, yeah. But a decent cupsole is vastly different than a vulc sole and the Accel slim is not a decent cupsole to me, not at least for skating in. Even with the other insoles that eS offer.

But the fact you have to use words like "decent" shows there's more to it than just cup=good, vulc =bad.
There's cups that are thin and shitty and vulcs that are actually sturdy.

It would be cool if skate shoe companies were clear about how padded the soles are. They could market them with the dissected view so you know what you're getting. "Cupsole" can be anything from this:



to this:



It's a pretty useless descriptor when trying to figure out if a shoe will wreck your knees or not.

More new Puigs, apparently only available in Nova Scotia at one random shop right now? Adidas' release structure is wild.

Does the puig skate well? Or is Adidas too lazy to make new designs? I feel like they’ve been out forever and they keep making colorways but I don’t think they sell that well  :o

As far as thin flexible cups, they're pretty good. Nothing wild cushioning wise but my feet don't feel awful. The toe shape is great and they're responsive. The laces suck but it made me learn a new knot so that's cool.

Solid shoe.
Do not confuse with the indoors.

To be fair, I think it's a pretty ugly model. I liked the previous Copa, but I like the look of the busenitz most. Funny that they got flagged for using AI lol.

Puigs are the only shoes I've been skating. Love it...and because its Puig. He never misses with shoes.

Puig Indoors are ass though. Wouldn't recommend those.

Always thought the puig indoors would be a more comfortable shoe since it’s got Eva foam in the midsole. What exactly is so bad about them?

I can only speak for my experience with the Puig Indoor. They were by far the thinnest cupsole I ever tried on. The NB# 306 Jamie Foy shoe is a vulc shoe. The Adidas Puig Indoor is a cupsole but felt half as padded as the NB# 306. The Puig Indoor were really thin and light and didn't offer much protection. But maybe some people like exactly that in a shoe.

The puig indoor is a vulc, his other shoe is a cup.
